Academic Pages

Academic Pages is a Github Pages template for academic websites.

Getting Started

Register a GitHub account if you don't have one and confirm your e-mail (required!)
Click the "Use this template" button in the top right.
On the "New repository" page, enter your repository name as "[your GitHub username].github.io", which will also be your website's URL.
Set site-wide configuration and add your content.
Upload any files (like PDFs, .zip files, etc.) to the files/ directory. They will appear at https://[your GitHub username].github.io/files/example.pdf.
Check status by going to the repository settings, in the "GitHub pages" section
(Optional) Use the Jupyter notebooks or python scripts in the markdown_generator folder to generate markdown files for publications and talks from a TSV file.

See more info at https://academicpages.github.io/

Running locally

When you are initially working your website, it is very useful to be able to preview the changes locally before pushing them to GitHub. To work locally you will need to:

Clone the repository and made updates as detailed above.
Make sure you have ruby-dev, bundler, and nodejs installed

On most Linux distribution and Windows Subsystem Linux the command is:
```
sudo apt install ruby-dev ruby-bundler nodejs
```
On MacOS the commands are:
```
brew install ruby
brew install node
gem install bundler
```
Run bundle install to install ruby dependencies. If you get errors, delete Gemfile.lock and try again.
Run jekyll serve -l -H localhost to generate the HTML and serve it from localhost:4000 the local server will automatically rebuild and refresh the pages on change.

If you are running on Linux it may be necessary to install some additional dependencies prior to being able to run locally: sudo apt install build-essential gcc make

Using Docker

Working from a different OS, or just want to avoid installing dependencies? You can use the provided Dockerfile to build a container that will run the site for you if you have Docker installed.

Start by build the container:

docker build -t jekyll-site .

Next, run the container:

docker run -p 4000:4000 --rm -v $(pwd):/usr/src/app jekyll-site

Maintenance

Bug reports and feature requests to the template should be submitted via GitHub. For questions concerning how to style the template, please feel free to start a new discussion on GitHub.

This repository was forked (then detached) by Stuart Geiger from the Minimal Mistakes Jekyll Theme, which is © 2016 Michael Rose and released under the MIT License (see LICENSE.md). It is currently being maintained by Robert Zupko and additional maintainers would be welcomed.

Bugfixes and enhancements

If you have bugfixes and enhancements that you would like to submit as a pull request, you will need to fork this repository as opposed to using it as a template. This will also allow you to synchronize your copy of template to your fork as well.

Unfortunately, one logistical issue with a template theme like Academic Pages that makes it a little tricky to get bug fixes and updates to the core theme. If you use this template and customize it, you will probably get merge conflicts if you attempt to synchronize. If you want to save your various .yml configuration files and markdown files, you can delete the repository and fork it again. Or you can manually patch.

Installation

For a hands-on walkthrough of al-folio installation, check out this cool video tutorial by one of the community members! 🎬 🍿

Local setup using Docker (Recommended on Windows)

You need to take the following steps to get al-folio up and running in your local machine:

First, install docker and docker-compose.
Then, clone this repository to your machine:

$ git clone git@github.com:<your-username>/<your-repo-name>.git
$ cd <your-repo-name>

Finally, run the following command that will pull a pre-built image from DockerHub and will run your website.

$ docker-compose up

Note that when you run it for the first time, it will download a docker image of size 300MB or so.

Now, feel free to customize the theme however you like (don't forget to change the name!). After you are done, you can use the same command (docker-compose up) to render the webpage with all you changes. Also, make sure to commit your final changes.

To change port number, you can edit docker-compose.yml file.

(click to expand) Build your own docker image:

Note: this approach is only necessary if you would like to build an older or very custom version of al-folio.

Build and run a new docker image using:

$ docker-compose -f docker-local.yml up

If you want to update jekyll, install new ruby packages, etc., all you have to do is build the image again using --force-recreate argument at the end of previous command! It will download ruby and jekyll and install all ruby packages again from scratch.

Local Setup (Standard)

Assuming you have Ruby and Bundler installed on your system (hint: for ease of managing ruby gems, consider using rbenv), first click Use this template above the file list, create a new repository at github.com:<your-username>/<your-repo-name> from github.com:alshedivat/al-folio and do the following:

$ git clone git@github.com:<your-username>/<your-repo-name>.git
$ cd <your-repo-name>
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec jekyll serve

Now, feel free to customize the theme however you like (don't forget to change the name!). After you are done, commit your final changes.

Deployment

Deploying your website to GitHub Pages is the most popular option. Starting version v0.3.5, al-folio will automatically re-deploy your webpage each time you push new changes to your repository! ✨

For personal and organization webpages:

Rename your repository to <your-github-username>.github.io or <your-github-orgname>.github.io.
In _config.yml, set url to https://<your-github-username>.github.io and leave baseurl empty.
Set up automatic deployment of your webpage (see instructions below).
Make changes, commit, and push!
After deployment, the webpage will become available at <your-github-username>.github.io.

For project pages:

In _config.yml, set url to https://<your-github-username>.github.io and baseurl to /<your-repository-name>/.
Set up automatic deployment of your webpage (see instructions below).
Make changes, commit, and push!
After deployment, the webpage will become available at <your-github-username>.github.io/<your-repository-name>/.

To enable automatic deployment:

Click on Actions tab and Enable GitHub Actions; do not worry about creating any workflows as everything has already been set for you.
Go to Settings -> Actions -> General -> Workflow permissions, and give Read and write permissions to GitHub Actions
Make any other changes to your webpage, commit, and push. This will automatically trigger the Deploy action.
Wait for a few minutes and let the action complete. You can see the progress in the Actions tab. If completed successfully, in addition to the master branch, your repository should now have a newly built gh-pages branch.
Finally, in the Settings of your repository, in the Pages section, set the branch to gh-pages (NOT to master). For more details, see Configuring a publishing source for your GitHub Pages site.

(click to expand) Manual deployment to GitHub Pages:

If you need to manually re-deploy your website to GitHub pages, run the deploy script from the root directory of your repository:

$ ./bin/deploy

uses the master branch for the source code and deploys the webpage to gh-pages.

(click to expand) Deployment to another hosting server (non GitHub Pages):

If you decide to not use GitHub Pages and host your page elsewhere, simply run:

$ bundle exec jekyll build

which will (re-)generate the static webpage in the _site/ folder. Then simply copy the contents of the _site/ foder to your hosting server.

Note: Make sure to correctly set the url and baseurl fields in _config.yml before building the webpage. If you are deploying your webpage to your-domain.com/your-project/, you must set url: your-domain.com and baseurl: /your-project/. If you are deploing directly to your-domain.com, leave baseurl blank.

(click to expand) Deployment to a separate repository (advanced users only):

Note: Do not try using this method unless you know what you are doing (make sure you are familiar with publishing sources). This approach allows to have the website's source code in one repository and the deployment version in a different repository.

Let's assume that your website's publishing source is a publishing-source sub-directory of a git-versioned repository cloned under $HOME/repo/. For a user site this could well be something like $HOME/<user>.github.io.

Firstly, from the deployment repo dir, checkout the git branch hosting your publishing source.

Then from the website sources dir (commonly your al-folio fork's clone):

$ bundle exec jekyll build --destination $HOME/repo/publishing-source

This will instruct jekyll to deploy the website under $HOME/repo/publishing-source.

Note: Jekyll will clean $HOME/repo/publishing-source before building!

The quote below is taken directly from the jekyll configuration docs:

Destination folders are cleaned on site builds

The contents of <destination> are automatically cleaned, by default, when the site is built. Files or folders that are not created by your site will be removed. Some files could be retained by specifying them within the <keep_files> configuration directive.

Do not use an important location for <destination>; instead, use it as a staging area and copy files from there to your web server.

If $HOME/repo/publishing-source contains files that you want jekyll to leave untouched, specify them under keep_files in _config.yml. In its default configuration, al-folio will copy the top-level README.md to the publishing source. If you want to change this behaviour, add README.md under exclude in _config.yml.

Note: Do not run jekyll clean on your publishing source repo as this will result in the entire directory getting deleted, irrespective of the content of keep_files in _config.yml.

Upgrading from a previous version

If you installed al-folio as described above, you can upgrade to the latest version as follows:

# Assuming the current directory is <your-repo-name>
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/alshedivat/al-folio.git
$ git fetch upstream
$ git rebase v0.3.5

If you have extensively customized a previous version, it might be trickier to upgrade. You can still follow the steps above, but git rebase may result in merge conflicts that must be resolved. See git rebase manual and how to resolve conflicts for more information. If rebasing is too complicated, we recommend to re-install the new version of the theme from scratch and port over your content and changes from the previous version manually.

FAQ

Here are some frequently asked questions. If you have a different question, please ask using Discussions.

Q: After I create a new repository from this template and setup the repo, I get a deployment error. Isn't the website supposed to correctly deploy automatically?
A: Yes, if you are using release v0.3.5 or later, the website will automatically and correctly re-deploy right after your first commit. Please make some changes (e.g., change your website info in _config.yml), commit, and push. Make sure to follow deployment instructions in the previous section. (Relevant issue: 209.)
Q: I am using a custom domain (e.g., foo.com). My custom domain becomes blank in the repository settings after each deployment. How do I fix that?
A: You need to add CNAME file to the master or source branch of your repository. The file should contain your custom domain name. (Relevant issue: 130.)
Q: My webpage works locally. But after deploying, it is not displayed correctly (CSS and JS is not loaded properly). How do I fix that?
A: Make sure to correctly specify the url and baseurl paths in _config.yml. Set url to https://<your-github-username>.github.io or to https://<your.custom.domain> if you are using a custom domain. If you are deploying a personal or organization website, leave baseurl blank. If you are deploying a project page, set baseurl: /<your-project-name>/.
Q: Atom feed doesn't work. Why?
A: Make sure to correctly specify the url and baseurl paths in _config.yml. RSS Feed plugin works with these correctly set up fields: title, url, description and author. Make sure to fill them in an appropriate way and try again.

Features

Publications

Your publications page is generated automatically from your BibTex bibliography. Simply edit _bibliography/papers.bib. You can also add new *.bib files and customize the look of your publications however you like by editing _pages/publications.md.

(click to expand) Author annotation:

In publications, the author entry for yourself is identified by string array scholar:last_name and string array scholar:first_name in _config.yml:

scholar:
  last_name: [Einstein]
  first_name: [Albert, A.]

If the entry matches one form of the last names and the first names, it will be underlined. Keep meta-information about your co-authors in _data/coauthors.yml and Jekyll will insert links to their webpages automatically. The coauthor data format in _data/coauthors.yml is as follows,

"Adams":
  - firstname: ["Edwin", "E.", "E. P.", "Edwin Plimpton"]
    url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Plimpton_Adams

"Podolsky":
  - firstname: ["Boris", "B.", "B. Y.", "Boris Yakovlevich"]
    url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boris_Podolsky

"Rosen":
  - firstname: ["Nathan", "N."]
    url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Rosen

"Bach":
  - firstname: ["Johann Sebastian", "J. S."]
    url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Sebastian_Bach

  - firstname: ["Carl Philipp Emanuel", "C. P. E."]
    url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Philipp_Emanuel_Bach

If the entry matches one of the combinations of the last names and the first names, it will be highlighted and linked to the url provided.

(click to expand) Buttons (through custom bibtex keywords):

There are several custom bibtex keywords that you can use to affect how the entries are displayed on the webpage:

abbr: Adds an abbreviation to the left of the entry. You can add links to these by creating a venue.yaml-file in the _data folder and adding entries that match.
abstract: Adds an "Abs" button that expands a hidden text field when clicked to show the abstract text
arxiv: Adds a link to the Arxiv website (Note: only add the arxiv identifier here - the link is generated automatically)
bibtex_show: Adds a "Bib" button that expands a hidden text field with the full bibliography entry
html: Inserts a "HTML" button redirecting to the user-specified link
pdf: Adds a "PDF" button redirecting to a specified file (if a full link is not specified, the file will be assumed to be placed in the /assets/pdf/ directory)
supp: Adds a "Supp" button to a specified file (if a full link is not specified, the file will be assumed to be placed in the /assets/pdf/ directory)
blog: Adds a "Blog" button redirecting to the specified link
code: Adds a "Code" button redirecting to the specified link
poster: Adds a "Poster" button redirecting to a specified file (if a full link is not specified, the file will be assumed to be placed in the /assets/pdf/ directory)
slides: Adds a "Slides" button redirecting to a specified file (if a full link is not specified, the file will be assumed to be placed in the /assets/pdf/ directory)
website: Adds a "Website" button redirecting to the specified link
altmetric: Adds an Altmetric badge (Note: if DOI is provided just use true, otherwise only add the altmetric identifier here - the link is generated automatically)
dimensions: Adds an Dimensions badge (Note: if DOI or PMID is provided just use true, otherwise only add the dimensions identifier here - the link is generated automatically)

You can implement your own buttons by editing the bib.html file.

Collections

This Jekyll theme implements collections to let you break up your work into categories. The theme comes with two default collections: news and projects. Items from the news collection are automatically displayed on the home page. Items from the projects collection are displayed on a responsive grid on projects page.

You can easily create your own collections, apps, short stories, courses, or whatever your creative work is. To do this, edit the collections in the _config.yml file, create a corresponding folder, and create a landing page for your collection, similar to _pages/projects.md.

Layouts

al-folio comes with stylish layouts for pages and blog posts.

The iconic style of Distill

The theme allows you to create blog posts in the distill.pub style:

For more details on how to create distill-styled posts using <d-*> tags, please refer to the example.

Full support for math & code

al-folio supports fast math typesetting through MathJax and code syntax highlighting using GitHub style:

Photos

Photo formatting is made simple using Bootstrap's grid system. Easily create beautiful grids within your blog posts and project pages:

Other features

GitHub repositories and user stats

al-folio uses github-readme-stats to display GitHub repositories and user stats on the the /repositories/ page.

Edit the _data/repositories.yml and change the github_users and github_repos lists to include your own GitHub profile and repositories to the the /repositories/ page.

You may also use the following codes for displaying this in any other pages.

<!-- code for GitHub users -->
{% if site.data.repositories.github_users %}
<div class="repositories d-flex flex-wrap flex-md-row flex-column justify-content-between align-items-center">
  {% for user in site.data.repositories.github_users %}
    {% include repository/repo_user.html username=user %}
  {% endfor %}
</div>
{% endif %}

<!-- code for GitHub repositories -->
{% if site.data.repositories.github_repos %}
<div class="repositories d-flex flex-wrap flex-md-row flex-column justify-content-between align-items-center">
  {% for repo in site.data.repositories.github_repos %}
    {% include repository/repo.html repository=repo %}
  {% endfor %}
</div>
{% endif %}

Theming

A variety of beautiful theme colors have been selected for you to choose from. The default is purple, but you can quickly change it by editing the --global-theme-color variable in the _sass/_themes.scss file. Other color variables are listed there as well. The stock theme color options available can be found at _sass/variables.scss. You can also add your own colors to this file assigning each a name for ease of use across the template.

Social media previews

al-folio supports preview images on social media. To enable this functionality you will need to set serve_og_meta to true in your _config.yml. Once you have done so, all your site's pages will include Open Graph data in the HTML head element.

You will then need to configure what image to display in your site's social media previews. This can be configured on a per-page basis, by setting the og_image page variable. If for an individual page this variable is not set, then the theme will fall back to a site-wide og_image variable, configurable in your _config.yml. In both the page-specific and site-wide cases, the og_image variable needs to hold the URL for the image you wish to display in social media previews.

Atom (RSS-like) Feed

It generates an Atom (RSS-like) feed of your posts, useful for Atom and RSS readers. The feed is reachable simply by typing after your homepage /feed.xml. E.g. assuming your website mountpoint is the main folder, you can type yourusername.github.io/feed.xml
